Even Ramsdale last season was 'letting in' the sorts of goals that we are now seeing.  

Yeah because there’s no difference between the strikers at Oxford Utd, Hull city & Norwich, compared with Harland, Salah & Cole Palmer….

FFS, here we go again… unlucky Baz. 
 

What was it Gary Player said “the more I practise the luckier I get”. With Baz it’s, “the more he lets in the unluckier he gets”. 
 

As for bigger problems, don’t make me laugh. As poor as our defenders are, they’re not the worst in every league they play in. 

The Baz defenders seem to find a reason why he would have saved it but didn’t for almost every goal he concedes. Must be the unluckiest keeper we’ve ever had.

I'm guessing here but I don't suppose by any chance that you might have seen the deflection off THB that diverted the ball up and over his right hand? Because if you had you would come to a different conclusion. Or do your prejudices not account for significant deflections?

The second would have beaten more goalkeepers than would have saved it.

Just out of interest, do you think a new GK in January is a must or is Bazunu good enough to be relied upon until the end of the season?

Edit:

OK, I've watched them.

Their first was a deflection off THB that would have beaten any goalkeeper. 

Their second was struck hard and low and will go in 7 times out of ten against anybody. He might have positioned himself slightly more to his left but that would have exposed his near post.

Let's not pretend that any goalkeeper at this level and certainly not McCarthy would have doe much different. We have much bigger problems elsewhere on the pitch.

Utter bollocks.

Watch the highlights of our recent game at Derby and look at the saves he made. He would have come out and narrowed down the angle to give himself a much better chance of saving it, which is something that Bazunu never does.

I would back McCarthy to save that. With Baz you just know it's going in.

Have just watched the highlights back and once again you have to ask why Bazunu isn't racing out and cutting down the angle for Oxford's winner - he is rooted close to his near post (is he continually roped to it or does he draw comfort from it?) and invites the attacker to pick his spot.

I’d have so much respect if SR came out once in a while and went “do you know what, we fucked up big time on this”.

But they never will.

So until that time, they will permanently be distant from the fans.

Because he is appalling

If only someone at SR realised this.

Does that read as modest and self-reflective to you? https://www.rasmusankersen.com

No, me neither.
